Ho mitakuyapi.
Something to ponder if ur interested. We were in court yesterday challenging Canadian jurisdiction. Comments have been made that in today's world we will never be given a fair trial because we carry around drivers licenses, status cards, pay bills, use Canadian money etc etc.
Here's our position on this as Dakota Oyate.
Yes we are in "their" court. Yes we carry around drivers licence, status cards etc.
Our take on this is that the government gave them themselves authority over the indian July 1, 1867 when the constitution was passed.
Included in their law was section 91 which is a unilateral (passing laws on their own) granting of federal authority. Currency, banking, taxation, marriage, divorce, postal service etc.
These are all standard government authorities.
What isn't standard is #24 on the list:
Indians and lands reserved for indians.
Keep in mind "Canada" at the time was on the east coast and along the north shores of the Great Lakes.
It wasn't "Canada" as it is today.
Our Dakota Oyate refused to surrender "sign treaty" so a refugee theory was established and other tribes signed away the western prairie provinces.
Today, we have completely blown their fabricated history and exposed it as lies.
In addition to this is the indian act which was passed into law in 1876. The indian act makes the "indian" in section 91.24 a legal permanent ward of the government.
This why it states in the indian act that our lands are to be held in trust for our use and benefit with the federal government as trustee.
(great white father)
So as legal wards we are not bound by their laws outside of the indian act. We are not capable of administering ourselves so everything done, drivers licenses, registration, passports etc are all within this indian act for our benefit.
Now as Dakota Oyate, we will not negotiate as "indians" today as was the case back in the 1860's.
We have documented history of our alliance with the British and we see "Canada" as a creation of the British government not as a nation.
The British are only sovereign on their lands. We are sovereign here.
We will not enter into a treaty with a corporate entity which is what the British North America Act (Canada) is.
We are in their court because it was the only way we could legally challenge jurisdiction.
As the constitutional lawyer for canada states "no court has countenanced such an argument". If no court countenanced it, how can there be legal precedent.
Canada cannot have it both ways. Either "indians" are wards (children, mentally incompetent, animals) with no legal responsibilities or "indians" are human beings that are being subjected to war crimes by stripping us of our humanity.
Canada is not a sovereign nation.
We are.

Nic Leech I would suggest a case based on being forced to use these forms of identification because to do anything else would once - and still could - be cited as revolutionary activities....with all the potential consequences.
Under current geo-political circumstances, it could be considered as terrorism to refuse.
